Jibo posted:Dooku Dodge is even less necessary if you have a unit that can throw up Offense Up regularly as well. I don't have Ben yet so I can't speak to his effectiveness but Dooku has not felt as great in Arena after I started rolling with QGJ and Yoda to possibly extend your Offense Up duration. Anytime I see Dooku, QGJ, and Poggle, I wonder what the gently caress that person is smoking. I think that with QGJ, Dooku is a little less good, but having redundant ways to get Rey offence up wins games. When I have to chew through an RG, and then a fives, and then a ben, I frequently come down to about a minute of game time left.

cowofwar posted:Farming RG at 16 energy per pop is painful. Yeah, I'm glad they added some good heroes to farm in the newest cantina addition, but it is really slow.

Daka (5* but level 78)? If you're doing GG squad, you NEED elder or Ackbar for the debuff removal. I use Elder because he works so well with Teebo. If you are facing the Rancor, Chirpa also helps Teebo's TM, but is not necessary. For Rancor, I usually run Teebo (L), Phasma, RG, QGJ, Rey. So much damage.

My fives is underleveled, but I'm working on that. You can replace Phasma and RG with Fives, because the primary reason I run both of them is for higher chance of a slow. It's probably still worth running Phasma there, but you could also replace her with Chewie (TM reduction), Lumi for heals, or GS for DPS.

MarcusSA posted:Yeah that might work. I don't think that Lumi even gets her heal off before the end of the battle. Her Skill block comes in handy on occasion. Well time to level Rey up some more I guess. Protection has made healing pretty irrelevant. Most of the time, the damage being put out is enough to one shot someone if they don't have protection, so healing won't stop that. Daka's heal revives though, so it can turn a battle completely around. The real reason I run Daka though is because she's fast and she stuns. Everyone on your team should do at least one of these four things: 1) High DPS (Rey, GS, Leia, etc) 2) Good CC (Daka, RG, Dooku vs Jedi, Lumi, Ben) 3) Utility (Fives, QGJ, Teebo, STH, Poe) -- by utility here removing buffs, removing TM, adding TM, etc 4) Reliable Taunt (RG, STH, Poe)

MoraleHazard posted:Why does Chewie start to suck? Is it the low DPS? I'm only level 54 and I've replaced him with RG on Arena and GW teams. A bunch of reasons. First, his Taunt is only 1 turn. This isn't enough to really protect anyone. Second, his damage is absolute poo poo. Third, he doesn't bring utility beyond those two things. Yes, he has a chance to apply TM down, and I guess that's ok, but if he's just taunting 1 in 4 turns, and occasionally giving someone -50% TM, that isn't enough to do anything. RG, by comparison, taunts anytime one of your team members drops below 50%. It doesn't even need to be RG's turn for him to taunt. Also RG stuns and slows. STH and Poe have also been used for Taunting -- Poe's era is over, but he's not bad. ST Han is amazing because if he takes damage while taunting, he gives your whole team TM, so, that's pretty huge.

Jibo posted:I haven't really done a whole lot with PVP since the patch hit but I'm a couple days away from 80 and wondering what kind of team I should put together. I'd appreciate some assistance with forming it up. RG is amazing at 6*, especially if you can get him to G9 or higher. DPS is just too vulnerable if you aren't using him or another tank. I honestly think RG is better than STH, but I am tempted to use STH with Ewoks...just to gently caress with people. I've seen some people using RG + STH, and this is a bad idea, IMO. I mean, I guess if you run Rey, GS, QGJ, it's not terrible, but I just don't think it's good enough. I'm not a huge fan of Yoda in Arena. FOTP got nerfed pretty hard, twice. I really like Dooku as lead, especially because Rey gives herself foresight. My advice is probably to just stick with Dooku, QGJ, Rey, RG, and then either Daka or GS. Daka has a pretty huge jump from 6* to 7* because of how much life she gains. Also, she gets way better with her basic omega upgrade.

Twigand Berries posted:On day 3 of phase 1 of QGJ's first attempt of the Tier VI raid, I had a thought I would like to throw out to you all. If people don't feel like their current guild is the right fit for them, then I'd encourage them to look into the other guilds. I'm not going to put the effort in, it's just not worth it to me. I'm about as non-casual as you can get in this game (I probably post in here the most, which I guess is good cause I'm the OP), but my main goal in guilds is not playing with pubbies. I also don't want inactives. That's about it. Also, 9-10AM looks like the best start time for raids for IGD. We'll stick with that. I won't always be on to start it, but if we have enough, one of the officers can. I'm also thinking we should do one T6 about every 1-2 weeks, and then use up all our built up currency on T5s. I think we're really close to the point where we can clear T6 in a reasonable amount of time, but it's not a terrible thing if it takes us a few days and we build up a few T5s in a row.

ModeSix posted:Ok so I'd like some suggestions and help about what I should develop in terms of my characters. It looks like you've spread out your arena tokens a bit...it's generally a better idea to focus on one hero to 7*, then move onto the next. We've generally put a lot of emphasis on Sid, but he does fall off after 70, whereas ST Han is actually really good now, so you might want to think about putting all your arena tokens into him. I would really recommend using all your GW credit on Lumi, she's solid in every mode you can use her...it's not until you start using Cantina battle and hard mode only heroes that you stop using Lumi. It looks like you've been doing droids, and that's not bad right now for a couple reasons -- there's apparently a droid event that will be going on, and also Jawa Engineer was just added, and has a lot of droid synergy -- but he requires raids, so, it's worth joining one of our guilds. If you plan on sticking with droids, then finish IG-86 and HK from GW/Arena, then move onto Poggle and IG-88. Also, QGJ and Daka are really good, but they take a lot of time, so use your Cantina credits on them. You can also start using hard modes to farm Fives, and he's worth it. I'd also use hard modes on Dooku and JC, and depending on how much gear farming you need to do, you can also work on Rey, Ewok Elder, and Ewok Scout -- but these guys are very long term goals. Work on Geonosian Soldier with your Cantina battles.

Antequek posted:https://swgoh.gg/u/antek-9/collection/ Squad arena: I would focus on Sid. Cantina Credits: I would really recommend QGJ/Daka. Fives is good, but he's not THAT good. Cantina Battles: GS Galactic War: I would put everything into Lumi. e: Actually, looking at that 4* Savage, it's probably worth taking him to 5 or 6. I think at this point, Savage may actually be better at GW and Arena than Sid, at least offensively. On defense, I pretty much ignore Savage until last, but offensively, you can do things like attack those with high counter chances and whatnot.

Hixalot posted:Is Leia only good in Rebel teams? Or when does she start getting good? I've spent the last week or so leveling and hearing her and am just underwhelmed so far, currently sitting lvl 77 (I'm still only 79) with Gear VII and 7*, I'm hoping Gear VIII is the turning point and should hit that tomorrow. For now I'm experimenting with Lumi(L), Rey, QGJ, Leia and 5's for arena, thought about Phasma lead but those heals have been clutch for me at least offensively. Anytime I run into her in Arena, she's a beast. Part of the reason is that she's fast, and she has a stealth, so she becomes untargetable very quickly. After that, she seems to have a very high chance to hit 3 times, and one of those shots is going to trigger crit up. The teams I see this in are generally something like Ben/Dooku (L), Rey, GS, RG, Leia. Rey and GS with Offence up and Crit up is very scary. Also, I've seen Leia triple shot for over 15k, so there's that. e: For those curious about the droid event https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/4kvbfh/droid_event_is_live_requires_energy_now/ https://www.reddit.com/r/SWGalaxyOfHeroes/comments/4kvhvq/eacg_exactly_how_many_times_am_i_expected_to_let/ Reddit posted:I currently have L76 IG86, G8+, 7 star, L68 IG88, G7+, 7 star, and L68 HK 47 G8, 7 Star, L55 IG100, G7, 4 Star (throwaway, but still) Malgrin fucked around with this message at 21:47 on May 24, 2016 |

Disco De Soto posted:Any idea how the ally system works? Does it just show the leader or best character from your ally's roster, or does it mix it up sometimes? Cause all I'm seeing now is Phasma, Phasma, Phasma, Phasma, Sid, Phasma, Phasma, Doku, Phasma... It's whoever that person used the last time they participated in that mission type. So, if you ran Phasma lead in your last DS mission, then if anyone else borrows from you when they do a DS mission, they'll get your Phasma. Seems like there are four categories for this: DS, LS, Cantina, and Challenges. Also, someone started a T6 in IGD. GO!

cowofwar posted:Phasma/rg/rey/qgj/yoda arena team? Rg and rey are 6*. That sounds decent, but Dooku is a better lead. Once I finish RG, I'm going to work on Ben, because if you are already running QGJ (and his omega adds 1 turn to that offence up), then TM gain is better than offence up. Also Ben just has so much HP. Alternatively, QGJ, Yoda, Rey, RG, +1 is really good. Doesn't even have to be a jedi, Yoda goes so loving fast and his basic grants TM and foresight. Then he does an AOE to get all the buffs and his stupid everyone gets all the buffs things...GS, Phasma, Savage, and Daka would all be good in the fifth slot. I'm still running G8 Dooku, G9 RG, G9 Rey, G9 Daka, G10 QGJ, all 7* except RG (~80/100). I'm not always super happy with Daka, but her double stun is impressive. She rarely revives on offence, and I feel like GS or ST Han would be a better fifth -- and yes, STH + RG is really good, I've lost to it.

I decided to read up on how the guild reset and schedule works, and now I'm suddenly not happy anymore since the guild (GGA) reset is 2:30 AM in my timezone, so there's no way to double up on the guild activities unless I stay up after midnight but that's not gonna happen. Or am I getting it wrong? While this sucks, it's not actually that big of a deal. The rewards don't scale very hard for contributions, so you might miss out on 15-20 guild coins per day...it adds up, but not to that much. 7 days * 20 = 140 which is still less than 1/3 of 5 shards, or less than 1/10 of 5 salvage.

kaschei posted:People at the top of the guild rankings get 50% more guild coins over people at the bottom. It adds up fast. You're using the wrong metric. If you compare the VERY bottom to the VERY top, sure, there's a huge difference, but that's not an accurate comparison. To make it to the very top, you have to spend a lot of crystals (at least in IGD) on both days to get there. In this case, so far (with ~9 hours to go on today's activities), Wrath has #1 with 1440, gaining 237 coins. I'm at 5th place, 702 energy, and 209 coins earned.. I estimate that I spent roughly 400 energy last night (I could optimize that a bit more, but that seems about average for me. That's with two refreshes last night and two today. Now that I'm level 80, I'm starting to save crystals...usually only do one refresh, but do two for light/dark/hard days. So, if we subtract 400 energy, that would be 302, which would be 20th place for ~180 crystals. 209 - 180 = 29. However, everyone on this list will have an opportunity to spend another 200ish energy before reset (9 hours + 45 + 45), so you could likely move up a couple spots from that. Like I said, not ideal, but not as big of a deal as you think it is. If people from Europe want to start Plo Goon, that's awesome. Please do. I'm just saying you aren't missing out on as much as you think you are. Dr. Venture posted:This is why I'm worried about running Old Ben. Yoda teams will just focus him first and steal all those crazy buffs. Seems like a super hard counter. I see 1-2 teams in the top 20 running Yoda. Also, if you kill Ben first, you are giving both teams crazy buffs. Yoda doesn't remove the buffs from their team.
